[583] On one occasion the Blessed One was dwelling at Rājagaha, in the wanderers' park at Moranivāpa (the Peacocks' Feeding Ground). There the Blessed One addressed the bhikkhus: "Bhikkhus!" "Venerable sir," those bhikkhus replied to the Blessed One. The Blessed One said this:
"Bhikkhus, a bhikkhu who possesses three things has reached the ultimate conclusion, the ultimate security from bondage (yogakkhema), the ultimate holy life (brahmacariya), the ultimate consummation, and is best among devas and human beings. What three? The aggregate of virtue (sīlakkhandha) of one beyond training (asekha), the aggregate of concentration (samādhi) of one beyond training, and the aggregate of wisdom (paññākkhandha) of one beyond training. Bhikkhus, a bhikkhu who possesses these three things has reached the ultimate conclusion, the ultimate security from bondage, the ultimate holy life, the ultimate consummation, and is best among devas and human beings."
